Physics Lab Report
ABSTRACT:
The lab of one dimensional motion is a series of experiments that deal with different types of motion in a single direction. In the first experiment, one dimensional motion of a small cart on an air track is measured in a one photogate system. The acceleration was calculated by the infrared light emitting electrode of the photogate sensing the slacks on the picket fence. The calculation for gravity yielded 9.63 m/s^2, which is consistent
with the accepted value of 9.8m/s^2. In the second experiment, acceleration of a cart traveling down a slight incline was measured with a two photogate method. Gravity was calculated and yielded a value of 8.7429, a bit lower than the accepted value of 9.8 m/s^2. The third experiment was the measurement of acceleration due to a horizontal force, a pulley system with a weight attached. The acceleration was measured with a single photogate. Gravity was calculated to be 9.209m/s^2 which is slightly lower that the accepted value of......
